Monopoly Junior

Sometimes, it takes a while for a little boy to truly appreciate a a present he received. Case in point: finally, after a year or two since he received it, Wolfie has decided that he wanted to play Monopoly. Well, not quite, it was the Junior version. When bought it for him, either for Christmas or his birthday, he could not be bothered with it and didn't give it a second look. Then a few months ago he played with his friends from school once, home-made rules. When he saw it among his toys and games last week, he just remembered and it's all he wanted to play. It's pretty much the same game, only way simpler and far more based on luck than strategy. But hey it's a start. I love board games, they kept me busy through my childhood, so I hope Wolfie's interest in Monopoly Junior will lead to more.

Every kid goes through a Monopoly phase, don't they? I remember playing it all one summer when I was a tween.
